Recent changes to disability benefits

With recent changes to disability benefits, employers in Bicester and Oxfordshire will be asking themselves “why is workplace inclusion important?”

The answer is simple: it’s about providing roles to people otherwise excluded from the workforce.

To make sure no one gets left behind, you should consider rethinking how you build your workplaces. IT support plays a key role in this instance as it allows you to enable accessibility and flexibility for disabled employees. Supporting this part of the workforce is key to enabling a larger population to have accessibility to work.

Here’s how to improve workplace inclusion:

  • Accessible Tech Tools
    • Acquire screen readers
    • Provide voice recognition software
    • Invest in alternative input devices (e.g., adaptive keyboards, trackballs)
  • Flexible and Remote Work Support
    • Work with safe and reliable cloud platforms
    • Use secure remote access (VPNs, virtual desktops)
    • Allow for configurations for hybrid work models
  • Inclusive Meetings and Training
    • Have the tools for live captioning and transcription tools
    • Use communication platforms that support screen readers and other aids
  • IT Accessibility Audits
    • Identify and implement quick adjustments (e.g., font settings, display preferences)
    • Recommend productivity-boosting tools for individual needs
  • Training and Awareness
    • Educate staff on accessible software and inclusive workplace practices
    • Promote best practices for digital inclusion
    • Teach your staff how to promote workplace inclusion

With the right IT support, inclusion becomes everyday practice.
